Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

3/4 lb Leeks; very thinly sliced Butter

Drop the thinly sliced leeks (tender green parts as well as white) into
1/2-inch fast-boiling salted water. Cook until very tender. Save the
cooking liquor. Whizz the leeks to a smooth, pale green puree. Season,
enrich with knobs of butter and thin with a little of the cooking liquor if
liked. Serve garnished with a bouquet of green coriander and triangles of
fried bread. Add some soft-boiled eggs for a quick vegetarian supper.
